We are looking for Employers to talk to schools through assemblies/drop down days on various topics including, skills, what employers are looking for in young people etc. We have a particular focus on Employers in schools across the North Yorkshire Coast. Again if you would like to talk to young people please let us know and we can provide further details.

Opportunity definitions –

Employer Workshop: this typically involves working with small groups of students with the workshop repeated across the day and features as part of a drop-down day – workshops can be informative on your sector/business and employers are encourage to do a hands-on activity or take a demonstration in of something you use in the workplace.
